t's very frustrating to be unable to open the car door. If you have just bought your car, there are a number of reasons why your car doors may fail to open. Some of the reasons include:

Failing To Unlock the Door

As simple as it may sound, it's very common for some people to fail to unlock their car doors. If you try to open the door and you find that isn't opening, the first thing that you should look at is the lock. As rule of thumb you should ensure that they are unlocked.

Seat Belt Problems

If your seat isn't fully retracted it may be closed up inside the door of the car. In some cases the belt may be positioned over the latching mechanism of the door causing the entire system to jam. If you take a look at the belt and notice that it's positioned over the latching mechanism, you should give it a firm shove from the inside of the car.

For ideal results you should shove it at the same time pulling the door handle. When doing it you may feel as if you are forcing the door to open, but when you take off the belt, the door will start working perfectly.

Mechanical Failure

Does your car door open only from one side? The problem can be as a result of failure with the mechanics inside the door. The most common mechanical problem is loose or broken rod. The cable that connects the non-working door handles to the latch.

If you have the skills you should remove the panel from the inside of the door in order to gain access to the mechanical components of the door. If you don't have the skills you should consider hiring a locksmith to help you out.

Unlubricated Hinges

Does your car door open, but with difficulty? The difficulty could be resulting from lack of lubrication. A sure sign that your hinges aren't lubricated is the creaking sound. To correct the problem you only need to lubricate the hinges. Here you should open the door in order to gain access to the door hinge.

You should then apply a generous amount of lubricant. For ideal results you should use grease or spray lubricant. To work the lubrication into the hinge you should fan the door.
